*Before you flash a new ROM make share you make a backup, cause anything can happen. This applies to anytime your flashing a ROM. Better safe than sorry.*
1) Make a backup of the current ROM you're on. You can back it up on the external or internal Sd card. It's really all up to you on where you want to save it.
CWM Recovery> Backup and Restore> Backup/Backup to internal Sd card.
2) Okay, once cwm is done making the backup, flash the new ROM.
Wipe Data/Factory Reset> Yes
Wipe Cache> Yes
Advance> Wipe Dalvik Cache> Yes
*Go Back and Scroll to mounts and storage*
Mounts and Storage> Format Data> Yes
Do that for Cache and System.
*Go Back*
Scroll To Install Zip From Sd Card> Choose Zip> Find The Place Where You Put Your ROM In
ROM Name> Yes.
Wait till it finishes installing and reboot the device.
3) Once it rebooted, set up your google account info and anything Else you want. Reboot back into recovery.
4) Scroll Down to Backup and Restore. Now scroll to advance restore or advance restore from internal Sd card(Depending on where you saved your backup)
Recovery> Backup and Restore
5) Select the back up you made before you flashed the new ROM. Now you'll have files that end with a ".img" select the one that says data.
Advance restore/Advance Restore From Internal Sd Card> The Backup you made> Data.img> Yes
6) While it finishes restoring your data.img make yourself a sandwich.
7)Reboot the device once it's done restoring and you should see all the apps you had before flashing the new rom.
Side note: I only do this if the ROM has been upgraded. Not sure how it would work out if you restored data from another ROM. Ex: Restoring Data from broken out ROM to Black Plague ROM. Doesn't hurt to find out though lol
